Team ward rounding can foster professionalism and humanism in medical training. Simple willingness and creativity can transform patient care rounds into valuable learning experiences, countering cynicism and frustration.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Clinical Practice
  • Professionalism in Medicine

Background:

  • Team ward rounding is a traditional medical training method.
  • Rounds offer opportunities to teach clinical skills and ethical patient care.
  • Current medical education lacks focus on applying professionalism and humanism during rounds.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore how to intentionally cultivate professionalism and humanism during team ward rounding.
  • To provide examples of "humanistic rounding" to stimulate discussion and practice.
  • To demonstrate that humanizing rounds requires willingness and creativity, not specialized training.

Main Methods:

  • Gathering examples of "humanistic rounding" from various healthcare institutions.
  • Analyzing these examples for common themes and practical applications.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Synthesizing findings to illustrate the potential for enhancing rounds.

    • Main Results:

    • "Humanistic rounding" can counteract negative aspects of the clinical environment, such as brusqueness and cynicism.
    • Examples demonstrate practical ways to integrate humanism into daily rounds.
    • No specialized training is necessary; a commitment to humanistic practice is sufficient.

    Conclusions:

    • Ward rounds present a vital, yet underutilized, opportunity to teach and model professionalism and humanism.
    • Implementing humanistic rounding practices can significantly improve the trainee and patient experience.
    • Encouraging willingness and creativity can transform routine rounds into powerful learning environments.
